Let D be the open unit disc in C. The paper deals with the following conjecture: If f is a continuous function on bD such that the change of argument of Pf+1 around bD is nonnegative for every polynomial P such that Pf+1 has no zero on bD…

Using Stickelberger's theorem on Gauss sums, we show that if $F$ is a planar function on a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, then for all non-zero functions $G : \mathbb{F}_q \to \mathbb{F}_q$, we have \begin{equation*} d_{\mathsf{alg}}(G \circ…

This article deals with the asymptotic behavior of fourth order differential equation where the coefficients are perturbations of linear constant coefficient equation. We introduce a change of variable and deduce that the new variable…

In this paper, we study the symmetric rank of products of linear forms and an irreducible quadratic form. The main result presents a new, non-trivial lower bound for the rank, and the arguments rely on the apolarity lemma. In the special…

This paper systematically investigates the absolute monotonicity of two function families associated with the Gaussian hypergeometric function $F(a, b; c; x)$ (where $a,b,c\in\mathbb{R}_+$): $\mathcal{F}_p(x)=(1-x)^pF(a,b;c;x)$ and…

The existence of decompositions of the form $f=P\cdot q+r$ with $P_k^{\ast}\left( D\right) r=0$, where $f$ is entire, $P$ a polynomial and $P^{\ast}_k$ the principal part of $P$ with its coefficients conjugated, was achieved in…

Let $N$ be a large prime and $P, Q \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ two linearly independent polynomials with $P(0) = Q(0) = 0$. We show that if a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z}$ lacks a progression of the form $(x, x + P(y), x + Q(y), x + P(y) +…

We study the existence and non-existence of classical solutions for inequalities of type $$ \pm \Delta^m u \geq \big(\Psi(|x|)*u^p\big)u^q \quad\mbox{ in } {\mathbb R}^N (N\geq 1). $$ Here, $\Delta^m$ $(m\geq 1)$ is the polyharmonic…

We prove a version of both Jacobi's and Montel's Theorems for the case of continuous functions defined over the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers. In particular, we prove that, if \[ \Delta_{h_0}^{m+1}f(x)=0 \ \ \text{for all}…

The problem of finding a nontrivial factor of a polynomial f(x) over a finite field F_q has many known efficient, but randomized, algorithms. The deterministic complexity of this problem is a famous open question even assuming the…

A solution is proposed for the problem of composition of ordinary generating functions. A new class of functions that provides a composition of ordinary generating functions is introduced; main theorems are presented; compositae are written…

This article presents a novel numerically tractable technique for synthesizing Lyapunov functions for equilibria of nonlinear vector fields. In broad strokes, corresponding to an isolated equilibrium point of a given vector field, a…

The quantum Kepler-Coulomb system in 3 dimensions is well known to be 2nd order superintegrable, with a symmetry algebra that closes polynomially under commutators. This polynomial closure is also typical for 2nd order superintegrable…

We study modular theory in hyperfinite von Neumann algebras, i.e. in those of type II or type III, from the viewpoint of a subregion charge sector decomposition. We address this symmetry resolution by considering infinite tensor products of…

We consider the compatibility of the equations of motion which follow from d'Alembert's principle in the case of a general autonomous non-holonomic mechanical system in N dimensions, with those equations which follow for the same system by…

We prove exponential decay of correlations for a class of $C^{1+\alpha}$ uniformly hyperbolic skew product flows, subject to a uniform nonintegrability condition. In particular, this establishes exponential decay of correlations for an open…

Resolvent compositions were recently introduced as monotonicity-preserving operations that combine a set-valued monotone operator and a bounded linear operator. They generalize in particular the notion of a resolvent average. We analyze the…

This paper is devoted to strictly hyperbolic systems and equations with non-smooth coefficients. Below a certain level of smoothness, distributional solutions may fail to exist. We construct generalised solutions in the Colombeau algebra of…

In this work, we extend the robust version of the Sylvester-Gallai theorem, obtained by Barak, Dvir, Wigderson and Yehudayoff, and by Dvir, Saraf and Wigderson, to the case of quadratic polynomials. Specifically, we prove that if…

Assume that $f$ is Dunkl polyharmonic in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (i.e. $(\Delta_h)^p f=0$ for some integer $p$, where $\Delta_h$ is the Dunkl Laplacian associated to a root system $R$ and to a multiplicity function $\kappa$, defined on $R$ and…
